Just read the 6th to last chapter of Villette and ummm what the hell was that
#the obnoxious overly saccharine picture perfect proposal scene/I can’t bear to give u my daughter but I will speech btwn GrahamMr Home+Polly
#Paulina is so overly good and sweet and filialy pious it’s irritating and creepy and… the thought of Graham w Ginevra is ultimately way more
#interesting to me. I prefer JE for a billion reasons so far but the way even in bliss she had characters be skeptical abt the security of
#their future martial happiness and whatever was. so important to me whshshs. I honestly thought Graham’s character would do some more
#unintentionally unseemly/crossing-a-line mischievous things instead of just. getting the best of the best in everything. like I did expect
#that to happen since Lucy kept stressing he was born lucky but! not so soon or easy. Paulina and he and her father r just. snore. boo. hiss.
#Jane’s assertion to Rochester that all men tore of their wives eventually literally as he showers her w grandiose out of touch praise >>
#Paulina’s whole role in Villette AND the couple in the professor’s ultimate ending. I get why they’re included but omg idc abt the children
#of any C Brontë couple outside of JE and I don’t want to ehdjejwhw
#I also wish I liked Paul Emmanuel more but. I googled what his hat looks like it’s far too ugly on top of him being canonically ugly and he
#didn’t start playing a big enough role in the story soon enough imo. I love lengthy prose that focuses on arguably irrelevant minutae or I’d
#not seek out classic lit obvi but! I have limits. the convenient heroic sob story of his made me roll my eyes too I’m sorry whshrhdj. it
#sounds like I’m not enjoying the book but I am. I just disagree w the plot choices/presentation of certain events more than I have in any
#other thing I’ve read by her so far and it hasn’t delivered in certain ways I expected it to based on JE tho that’s a little unfair of me.
#I do love Lucy Snowe tho even if she’s a little tiresome rn in her complacency and how grandly she describes everything I just said made me🙄
#mine
#anyway I love Ginevra I’d deal w her how Lucy does except I’d be a bit more protective. let girls be vapid and silly and shallow and unwise
#girls like Polly r. unnatural
